Chapter 141: What happened in the piano competition

“Wen Niannan”
Gu Yansheng suddenly opened his eyes and sat up abruptly but fell back because of his dizziness.
The eyes of the person lying on the hospital bed were full of skepticism. He couldn’t believe that the person he always saw in his dreams would be Wen Niannan…
Was that a memory of something that he didn’t expect back then, or an illusion caused by often dreaming of Wen Niannan…
He was going to find out where Wen Niannan was on the day he escaped from the kidnappers. If Shen Luoan lied to him…
He was going to see Wen Niannan. He wanted to ask Wen Niannan face to face what was going on.
Gu Yansheng’s eyes darkened as he pulled out the needle in his hand and got out of the bed, he walked out of the door. But when he opened the door, he couldn’t walk even a few steps, he staggered, almost falling because of dizziness.
“Mr. Gu? Why did you come out? You haven’t fully recovered yet”
The doctor walked over and helped Gu Yansheng, but he pushed him away.
Gu Yansheng squeezed his hand and said in a cold tone, “Question, what is the magnitude of my head injury? Will there be memory disorder?”
“Memory disorder? No, happens when you receive strong mental trauma and heavy blows. You are only temporarily dizzy while the wound is still infected, which could produce some fever.”
Gu Yansheng raised his hand reaching the bandage on his forehead, a lonely flash appeared in his eyes.
“I want to be discharged.”
The doctor was startled: “What? You…you aren’t well yet.”
Gu Yansheng turned his head and looked at the doctor coldly: “I said, I want to be discharged.”
“Okay…okay, but we will let your family come to do the discharge procedures.”
Gu Yansheng looked out the window without expression he raised his hand to cover his chest. Since waking up, he had been flustered, his eyes are filled with panic and fear.
His body was trembling with excitement…he wanted to know the truth, but he was afraid that the truth would be something unacceptable.
He used to think that Wen Niannan’s back looked very familiar, but he couldn’t remember it. Now when he thinks about it, he found that he really looked like the person who saved him in his memory…
Shen Luoan didn’t know the necklace…Shen Luoan’s back looked very strange…even the voice was. Something was different…
The student’s badge name could haven’t been imagined by himself… if it truly was what he saw back then?
He wanted to go to the alley of the high school again, maybe he could remember something more…
Gu Yansheng wanted to see in person whether the name badge with Wen Niannan had been messed up in his dream or in reality…he wanted to meet Wen Niannan, and he wanted to ask Wen Niannan if he knew what happened back then…
Wen Niannan was listening to a song with his headphones on in the piano room as he unconsciously sang a few words along, he put the piano score in the bag and set it aside, he was shocked when he turned around as he saw Tang Shuo behind him.
“Niannan, your signing is so good. Your voice feels very warm. Why do you only play music and not sing? If you sing, your fans will blow up. They all will be controlled by your voice, haha.”
“I can’t sing.”
Tang Shuo was taken aback, “What?”
Wen Niannan lowered his head and looked at the ring marks on his hand, and said bitterly: “Before…my vocal cords were injured and my voice changed a lot, but it slowly recovered in the next few years. I asked the doctor, and the doctor said that I couldn’t sing…”
Tang Shuo comforted: “It’s all right…your piano sound is perfect. Just use your piano sound to fascinate them.”
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Wen Niannan’s mouth, and he said:,”Let’s go practice the piano, tomorrow is the competition, I’ll go drink a glass of water first.”
“Good.”
Wen Niannan walked outside and poured a glass of water as he raised his hand to touch his throat, his eyes flickering slightly.
Wen Niannan stood at the door and looked at the streets where cars came and went. The weather became warmer, and even the sun became warmer.
Wen Niannan looked at the sunflower pillow on the bench behind him and tightened his lips.
Did the sunflower he planted also bloom? It must be beautiful…
Gu Yansheng looked at Wen Niannan, who was standing in the sun, frowning slightly. His chest suddenly jumped quickly, and the grip on the steering wheel tightened.
He wanted to rush up and hug Wen Niannan tightly…but he flinched a little…he was afraid to see the disgust in his eyes.
It was like… the eyes he used to look at Wen Niannan…
He touched the doorknob with his left hand, but as soon as he was about to open it, he saw Tang Shuo appearing behind Wen Niannan, he watched the two of them talk and laugh inside.
Gu Yansheng raised his hand and touched the bandaged head, his eyes full of unwillingness.
If the chest plate in that dream was true… then Wen Niannan might have saved his own person.
Gu Yansheng took out his cell phone and dialed a number, the call was picked up almost instantly.
“Yansheng! Yansheng, you finally have the initiative to call me!”
Gu Yansheng squeezed the phone and said, “Luoan, I remember I had a white coat when I was in the hospital. It was the one with golden tassels on my chest. Do you remember?”
“Huh? Yes…do you have that coat? I forgot.”
That coat was the one he wore when he was kidnapped, but when he woke up, he found that he could never find it again.
Gu Yansheng’s eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice, “Really? I will go to the high school tomorrow to visit the teacher. Do you…wanna go together?”
Shen Luoan suddenly panicked when he heard that he was going to high school, “Why…why are you going to high school so suddenly?”
“Last night I dreamed of a lot of things in the high school years. I wanted to see my teachers. If you don’t want to go, then I will hang up first.”

Toot…Toot…
Shen Luoan watched the hung-up phone and dropped the phone to the ground.
“Damn, what does Gu Yansheng want to do? Is he…is he going to investigate what happened back then?”
Shen Luoan’s eyes were full of madness and fear.
What if he exposes you? Do you want to watch Gu Yansheng and Wen Niannan reconcile and remarry again!
Don’t even think about it!
Even if Gu Yansheng discovers the truth, he wouldn’t ignore himself. Well, he had been by his side over these years. He took care of him when he was seriously injured in the hospital. Gu Yansheng would not be so cruel…
Finally, the day of the piano competition came. Tang Shuo ran to Wen Niannan’s house early in the morning, but Wen Niannan was already at the door.
Wen Niannan was wearing a white formal suit today. He was standing at the door, talking to Father Wen. He turned his head as soon as he heard the sound of the car.
“Niannan, you really look good in white. It suits you too well.”
Tang Shuo wore a dark blue formal suit today, which made him a little calmer.
Wen Niannan and Father Wen both laughed, “You are also very handsome, that color suits you very well.”
Tang Shuo scratched his head in embarrassment, “Really? Haha, this is my brother’s choice. My brother said he will be back today and he will come to watch us play.”
“Very well, so let’s go ahead.”
After arriving at the scene, the two of them were taken to backstage by the staff to do make-up and haircuts. After Tang Shuo was ready, he played on his phone in the waiting room. It didn’t take long for Wen Niannan to come out.
The originally slightly long soft hair was slightly curled up, and the slightly curled bangs on the side fell in front of the eyebrows, and because of the shadow cast on the face by the makeup artist, the original delicate facial features became more attractive.
Tang Shuo was stunned when he saw him. He didn’t expect Wen Niannan to be so stunning after a professional stylist did his hairstyle.
“Wow… Niannan…you look so good.”
Wen Niannan was also a little embarrassed, he diverted his gaze, and said, “Let’s… let’s go to the back of the stage and wait. It will be our turn soon.”
Tang Shuo then recovered, and quickly took Wen Niannan’s hand and ran behind the stage.
“Uhm…” Tang Shuo suddenly stopped and touched his chest.
“What’s the matter?” Wen Niannan asked worriedly.
“My chest feels a little weird.”
Tang Shuo’s chest was filled with panic, very uncomfortable.
He glanced at the two players in front of him, the next ones to come were he and Wen Niannan.
He took a deep breath and tried to make himself more relaxed, it took a really long time to finally settle himself.
Wen Niannan brought a glass of water and handed it to him: “How is it? Does it still hurt?”
Tang Shuo took a sip of the water and said, “It doesn’t hurt anymore. I’m fine. Let’s go over and wait.”
“Yeah.”
Wen Niannan walked onto the stage and looked at the people playing the piano on the stage. He turned to look at the auditorium. He saw his father sitting in the second row. Wen’s father beckoned him.
But the front row of the auditorium was empty, and that was the ticket Tang Shuo got.
Tang Lunxuan didn’t come.
Tang Shuo’s parents didn’t come either.
Wen Niannan wondered why the Tang family did not come. Tang Shuo clearly said that they were all looking forward to coming to the auditorium.
“Niannan, did you see my brother? Did my dad and mom come?”
Tang Shuo also looked at the auditorium but saw no one in the empty seat.
“Oh? Why haven’t they come yet, I’m going to be on the court.”
Tang Shuo took out his cell phone to make a call, but the cell phone rang suddenly.
The caller ID was an unfamiliar number, Tang Shuo answered it without much thought.
“Hello? Who?”
“Little Shuo…It’s mother…Little Shuo, come soon, your dad had a cerebral hemorrhage in the hospital…the doctor said your dad might be dying…what should I do…”
Tang Shuo suddenly stiffened: “Mom…what did you say? How could it be…”
Wen Niannan asked worriedly after hearing his voice: “What happened?”
How could it be…why a sudden cerebral hemorrhage…
“I’m going now…don’t be afraid of mom…where is my brother? Is my brother with you in the hospital? Can he tell me what the doctor said?”
Mother Tang on the other end of the phone cried even louder: “Your brother…AXuan, he was in an accident. After hearing the news, your father was so worried that he passed out with a cerebral hemorrhage…”
Hearing the voice coming from the other end of the phone, Tang Shuo suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his hands trembled violently, and the phone almost fell to the ground.
He tried to calm his voice, but still choked with a trembling: “My brother…he…what happened…”
“Your brother…someone called on the phone saying that AXuan’s helicopter crashed in the sea after he arrived in Ya Country…after looking for him all night, we couldn’t find him…”
Wen Niannan sensed that something serious must have happened, otherwise Tang Shuo wouldn’t lose control of his emotions.
“Tang Shuo…what’s wrong with you?” Wen Niannan reached out to help Tang Shuo but was slapped away by him.
Tang Shuo raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him, and opened his mouth to speak, but no sound came from his mouth.
Looking at the phone hung up he then looked at the players performing on the stage with hollow eyes, the piano was right in front of his eyes… but it seemed that he would never be able to reach it…
